I've been itching to fire up the new smoker ever since I got it finished in Nov. Hopefully the state fire ban will be lifted before long so we can get going.

Im not really sure what they are... thats just what the sticker said on the meat when we bought them they said "Dinner Steak" its marinating in some Lawrys - lime mesquite marinade mixed with some seasoning and KC masterpeice brown sugar bbq sauce and some beer

and we only use a charcoal grill

Oklahoma. We've had a state-wide burning ban in effect since December. The only outdoor cooking allowed is on Propane grills. Even charcoal isn't accepted.

I have a rick of Applewood, two smokers, a bunch of people wanting ribs, we just need moisture to lift the ban.

Ah, that sucks. I'm using alder wood today... never used it before. I understand it's fairly mild, though.

What did I do today?

I went to Enid, OK with some of my family, walked around in Wal-Mart, Lowes, Atwoods and the mall. Played ski-ball (the greatest arcade game ever).

I bar-b-que dinner about four nights a week. I bought my first smoker in January, but have yet to use it, been too busy to read the directions I guess. Looking forward to using it though. Feel free to throw any advice on using smoker's my way....

Can you smoke tri-tips? Maybe that's why you haven't used it. :p

Yes, you can. When my wife died, her step dad gave me and my girl 6 Tri-tips that he had smoked. Oh my gosh, they were even better than when I 'que em. (Enormous pain typing that!) He used a smoker when he had us up for Thanksgiving one year. It was the best turkey I have ever had. Do they have turkey where you live?...... :p

Still burpin' the ribs... good stuff... the bark turned out better than I'd ever done them before, but they were still a *little* tough -- I'm guessing the colder air screwed up my normal smoke times... oh well. Unfortunately, I had to "finish" them in the oven. But they were good anyway. New rub was pretty damn spicy, too.

What kind of smoker you got, BIG K? There are a TON of guys around here that are more than willing to offer up their smoking advice.
